Maharashtra Seeks Consultant to Advance Gadchiroli Greenfield Airport Clearances
The Maharashtra Airport Development Company Limited (MADC) has relaunched the bidding process to hire a specialised consultant for securing forest diversion, land revenue coordination, and statutory clearances for the proposed greenfield airport in Gadchiroli. The project, stalled due to farmer protests despite Rs 104.48 crore approval for acquiring 311.81 hectares, aims to complete all pre-construction approvals within six months. The consultant will coordinate with multiple government agencies and ensure compliance with forest and tribal laws.
